Reflection coefficient at the plasma end.

Parameters:: R_p (float) – Plasma resistance in Ohm.
Returns:: Reflection coefficient at the plasma end, dimensionless.
Return type:: float

Notes

The reflection coefficient at the plasma end is given by:

\[\Gamma_p = \frac{R_p - Z_c}{R_p + Z_c}\]

where:

\(R_p\) is the plasma resistance in Ohm,
\(Z_c\) is the cable characteristic impedance in Ohm.
